The notorious potholes (craters) are back with a bang after the rains and all major and minor roads are full of it to the extent that we need to search for those short stretches of decent roads left.

Here are the bytes I have picked up (read in print, so don't have links handy, will search and add later)

BMTC losing out on outdoor advertising revenues?

15 September 2013 - 6:00pm — silkboard

You see colorful, big, bright, and sometimes visually polluting hoardings, legal as well as illegal, crowding out road side air space almost everywhere in Bengaluru. The cacophony of imagery and colors tells you that there is decent demand for outdoor advertising.
